Aloha, I'd like to continue my 20 questions with these: I have weather helm sailing upwind and lee helm sailing downwind. Has anyone had this problem? It's most notiable in the wind range of 10-13mph
What is the distance you use from the bridle to the top of spin pole?
What is the apparent wind angle for best VMG with the chute up? or do most sail as deep as possible with the weather hull flying?
PS raced against the Hobie 20's including a Fox and a NACRA6.0NA this weekend and smoked them all on Saturday on a windward leeward course with winds in the 14-18mph range, man this chute flying is fun and I love saying 3, 2, 1 deploy! Sunday was a 22 mile long distance race in 5-13mph winds and lots of reaching so didn't do so well. At times we could leave the boats in the dust but they would catch us in the light stuff reaching or upwind in chop. Finished right with the 20's but needed to finish way ahead to win on corrected time (USSA Portsmouth rating was used). Thanks all
PSS were there any Tigers at worlds?
